As outlined in the conditions of the CIHR funding, the Nominated Principal Investigator (NPI) of the Consortium is required to submit a progress report in collaboration with the other Research Team NPIs in years 2 and 4 of the five-year grant after the funding start date. The Consortium submitted its first progress report at the beginning of September, which captures the work undertaken from May 2022 to April 2024. We've been very impressed by what our research community has produced so far, and by the exciting new initiatives underway.
